Raamatus on kolm lugu, mida ühendab loodus. See, mis mulle on lähedane lapsepõlvest saadik ja millega kokkupuutumistest ka kirjutan. Tegu on peaaegu reisikirjadega, millest tuleb välja, et vahel pole olulist vahet käigul kodumetsa pliidipuude järele või käigul Uus-Meremaa metsa põliseid kauripuid vaatama. Oluline ja huvitav on ikka see, mida inimene oma retkel näeb, mõtleb ja mida selline retk temale tähendab. Kas meelelahutust, targemaks saamist või veel üht kinnitust oma ühtekuuluvustundele loodusega, metsaga, puude-põõsaste, lillede ja lindudega. Ja rõõmu, et midagi niisugust on ikka olemas ja muret selle pärast, kas ja kui kaua loodus, metsad ja niidud, milleta elu ei suuda ette kujutada, veel kestab. See rõõm nagu see muregi on paljudele meist ühine ja see annab lohutust. Ja isegi lootust. Autorid: Jaan Kaplinski

It's 1964 in the tiny town of Eastport, Maine, and Billy McCadie is bored to death. She's surrounded by Jell-O salads and dull people with more etiquette than sense, with absolutely no sign of the intrigue or romance that fill the pages of her beloved novel collection. That is, until an engagement ring and cryptic love letter turn up, addressed to 'Gertrude'. As Billy gets pulled ever-deeper into in a bizarre and stranger-than-fiction mystery that the local police can't begin to handle, and despite sorely lacking Nancy Drew's effortless charm or Miss Marple's social graces, she finds herself with no choice but to put on her detective hat. But as the body count rises and the danger starts to feel ever closer to home, why does it feel like she's much more than just a side character? Is someone trying to mess with her, frame her, or write her out for good? And after so long yearning to be in the action rather than reading it, and with the only man with two brain cells in Eastport within her reach, would it be so terribly unladylike for her to have some fun of her own?

Case Study from the year 2016 in the subject Didactics for the subject English - Pedagogy, Literature Studies, , course: ESL/EFL, language: English, abstract: In terms of second language acquisition (L2), those language learning participants who are able to participate in overseas business trips, coupled with formal instruction, appear to make the most gains. Conversely, those who do not participate in such events, even when coupled with formal instruction, appear to fossilize or plateau, if they do not recognize some other use for L2. The purpose of this case study was to examine the factors affecting the L2 acquisition of one specific individual (Mr. T) located in Japan, in order to determine how and if the participant¿s level of communicative competence could be improved upon. This case study utilized oral classroom work, informal taped interviews and participant observation and drew on the available linguistics literature to present possible implications for instructors working with individuals in similar EFL circumstances. Not surprisingly, for intrinsic motivation and L2 acquisition, a student must be understood as both part of his/her cultural group as well as individually. An examination of the available literature showed that it was possible to overcome behaviours that limited L2 acquisition. This study also strongly suggested that the quality of personal relationships affected participants¿ level of intrinsic motivation.
